The plans seems to be working, because "the Beckham effect" is changing the way the public views MLS. Ticket sales are way up, and according to league commissioner Don Garber, merchandise sales for the entire league are up 300 percent. Galaxy sales alone are up 700 percent, and Beckham's is the No. 1 selling jersey in the Sports Authority sporting goods chain. At present, Beckham is selling more jerseys than any of the big names in the other major sports in America.

Since the announcement that Beckham was joining the LA Galaxy and the MLS, stadiums across America have been selling out to see the “Ambassador of the MLS”. This role was one that Beckham accepted whole heartedly and takes very serious, so why is Frank Yallop keeping him at home when they travel to Colorado?

Now "fans" and American mainstream media are bashing Beckham for waiting until he is fully healed to step foot on the pitch again. Not only are they bashing him, "fans" are upset and demanding refunds when he doesn't play.
